After I received the item, I made dessert with it immediately. It was great, real thing

The agar powder is a fantastic vegan alternative to gelatin, perfect for adding a firm texture to various recipes. I’ve been using it in some of the desserts I’m making, and it works great, especially for vegan or gluten-free treats. It's also sugar-free, which makes it even better for healthier options.

I have used Agar Agar in its raw form to make Almond Jelly before. It's my first time using Agar Agar powder to make Almond Jelly. On the bag, it has instructions on how to use it as a thickener. I wish it came with recipes and instructions on how to use it to make desserts. At first, I thought it was an instant powder that you would only need to add hot water to it, but it wouldn't set at all. Then, I found instructions on other Agar Agar powder pages on Amazon and came up with my own.If you want it to set or solidify, you must boil the liquid. Since my first attempt didn't set, I used a bit more powder than needed. I added 2 level tablespoonful of the powder to about 3 cups of water and brought it to a boil. I let it simmer on low for about a couple minutes and it started to thicken. Then, I turned off the stove and added a cup of milk to it, along with sugar and a bit of almond extract. In the end, it made about 3.5 cups of almond jelly. The jelly set within an hour and it was a bit firm, so I think I need to more liquid next time. That said, if you're making a firmer dessert, my ratio might be right.The powder is convenient to use and it came in a resealable bag. I just need to figure out the correct ratios for different desserts. No country of origin listed.

Since I cannot eat gelatin because of the monosodium glutamate, I got this “Agar Agar Powder” to make homemade marshmallows. However, after researching the safety of Agar Agar, I found that it contains iodine, which I am allergic to. I am thankful that I did research before consuming the Agar powder. This is not to say that this Agar Agar is not a good product, it’s just that I cannot consume it. Perhaps a package warning label might be appropriate for this product. If you choose to use this supplement, I would suggest doing research first.

This agar powder is fantastic for vegan recipes! It’s easy to use, and a little goes a long way. I’ve used it in desserts and as a thickening agent, and it works beautifully every time. It dissolves quickly and creates a perfect texture. Plus, it’s gluten-free and sugar-free, which fits right into my dietary needs. Highly recommend for any vegan kitchen!

I often use agar agar to make some desserts, but am used to small little packets that I get from my Asian grocer. So nice to have a bulk bag! Will last me a very long time.

This Agar Agar powder works great to make sugar free Keto desserts. There’s so many recipes online to make desserts using Agar Agar, and you can tweak it to what you want. I used 4 ⅓ cup water, 4 teaspoon agar powder, 1 ⅓ cup heavy whipping cream, and ¾ cup Monkfruit powder. It worked beautifully.

As someone who cooks and bakes a lot, this was a nice find. It is agar agar which is a great thickening agent, which I keep stored sealed tightly in containers and now it'll be some time before I have to shop for it again.
